1. EDUCATING CHILDREN ABOUT PRUDENCE

Children must be raised to be prudent in everything, even if they are raised in a reputable family. In other words, worthy children are raised to be prudent in all things. Every step taken, every word uttered, every action contemplated must be prudent. Manners are complex and it's not easy to master them.

Nowadays no one cares that much about manners; it's an age of permissiveness. It's critical. Do young people like manners? If we don't teach them manners, it's our own ruination: no future. Prudent families contain many useful educational resources. They teach how to deal with adults, with siblings, with parents.
